What's your latest MOTU score?

**cobrakahn** · March 12, 2013, 08:11am

The Orko looks awesome! I picked up some blackstarr figures this past week by the ebay! Filmation 1980s is close enough!

**SunDevil** · March 12, 2013, 09:25am

I wish Mattel would fold Bravestarr and Blackstar into MOTUC!

Man-E-Toys - terrific find! Are they supposed to be made into pillows or something?

Also, speaking of Man-E-Toys - I just bought his AFA80 Battle Ram and AFA80 Laser Bolt! Thanks for the great deal!

FINALLY!

A lot of MOTU collectors consider the Euro Four to be the Holy Grail of MOTU collecting but for me it was always a MIB Eternia! Well, that and an AFA80 or better 8-back He-Man. But I digress! Finally got the big set and it was just dumb luck or serendipity (or both!) that it came in a collection with the other three playsets!

SO thrilled!

Yeah you make them into pillows. I don't have the skills for that so I'm just going to leave them for now.

Thanks again, they were shipped today.

Picked up a small box of figures, nothing that noteworthy, expert maybe a WB He-man, as I posted in the other topic.

And with all the tell tale signs of what most accept as clues to a "legit" savage he-man (if there is such thing).

. neck\throat lift
. clear space under belt
. brown of the hair doesn't match brown of the shorts
. boot paint over calf

EDIT:

Also a brownish red stain in the leg (like one of mine had) suggesting the figure probably did come packaged with the maroon weapons

Whole theory here:

Wow!

Congrats, SunDevil!

**SunDevil** · March 13, 2013, 09:24am

Thanks Tim! Took a lot of effort to arrange the deal but it paid off! Lot of lucky circumstances involved as well!

**Squid** · March 13, 2013, 10:41am

Can somebody tell me something about this figure?

Shop owner wants $210. I can probably get it for 175.
The buble has a few bumps, and the card is bended.
But Cloetta?! A Swedish candy company?

**Man-E-Toys** · March 13, 2013, 10:47am

That's a french yellow boarder figure isn't it? I'm assuming the store just slapped their own sticker on it.

**Squid** · March 13, 2013, 10:52am

I dunno?! I thought the yellow boaders were sold in South America?
And why was it, that these unflattering stickers got slapped on?

I was never that interested in these niche card kinda figures.
Always prefered straight ol' regular American cards.

**Mantisaur82** · March 13, 2013, 12:29pm

From the photo, I think that the figure is french variant with soft rubber boots (boots were molded in rubber of that color, not painted). These figures with rubber boots were produced in France but sold mostly in Germany.

**Benedict Judas Hel** · March 13, 2013, 12:50pm

Forget the He-Man, Squidward! Grab those Pretender Transformers! There's Submarauder and Landmine plus the one hidden under Musclor.

**Squid** · March 14, 2013, 09:23am

Thanks, Mantisaur.

This little shop is heaven. I cannot believe I've never knew about it.
I just recently saw a little clip of it in the local news, so of course I
had to visit.
Tonnes of toys. Especially (loose) MOTU and TMNT. He also has a
complete Dino-Riders T-Rex. OMG!!!
I think that lots of treasures are hidden here for the right finder.
I have no interest in nor knowledge about Transformers.
You know that, mylord.

**soundwaves** · March 14, 2013, 10:30am

if you don't need the Yellow-Border He-Man, Squid ... I do !!

Sacrilege! As punishment I order you to watch every G1 Transformer episode (98 in all) and every G1 Japanese episode including Scramble City as well as Transformers Zone. That ought to teach you, Squiddy!

**MOTU_Maniac** · March 15, 2013, 10:02pm

Have all of the single MIB/MOC Commemorative figures now

At the beginning of the Eighties, France had two Mattel factories producing the toy line "Les Maitres De L'Univers", one of the these 2 factories produced cards with a yellow border on the face. They were marketed throughout Europe.

Originally I traded it to him to fill some significant holes in my classics collection. Needless to say, it filled BIG holes. Then after seeing it up for auction on eBay, I dropped a last minute bid and won it back, lol.

**Man-E-Toys** · March 21, 2013, 12:26am

Made a huge score earlier today. You always hear stories of people getting lucky and picking up a huge collection. I never thought it would happen to me, but today was my day.

72 figures. Battle Ram, Point Dread & Talon Fighter, Zoar, Screeech, erasers, a sealed can of slime! The only figures missing from a complete figure collection are Modulok, Rotar and Thunder-Punch He-Man.

**scar1321** · March 21, 2013, 12:30am

Dang! That must have cost a fortune!!

Let's just say I got a good deal. I'll definitely be unloading a bunch in the near future.
